This might match a carveout representing remapped device memory, which
wouldn't have a memdev so the logic below would silently allocate from
the parent dma_mem instead.

I don't think this is user friendly and would be better to just use the
information in the already mapped carveout.

It's possible that you have fulfilled a resource_table carveout request
with this memory, making the dynamic allocation likely to cause issues.
